I've seen some confusion about the emergence of 🆘 and #SOSAmerica2019, so I want to clear that up right now.

SOS is a group of ordinary people who have seen that our politicians are unwilling to take drastic action to get Trump out of office.

So we, the people, must lead. /1

The amazing protests in Puerto Rico have inspired us.

The sustained, massive protests in Hong Kong have inspired us.

Russians protesting Putin have inspired us.

Sudan rising up against their military regime has inspired us.

Pakistan, Algeria, France, have inspired us. /2

So now we're planning for sustained, mass protest.

We don't want to do it alone. We are boosting and planning to boost every protest against Trump.

We are reaching out and planning to reach out to the many amazing orgs we know are fighting this fight.

We have a communications infrastructure in place that facilitates cooperation between people across the country. DM me if you want to get plugged in.

All who are ready to protest at the level required to get Trump out are welcome. #SOSAmerica2019 🆘

One and done protests don’t work, sustained protests do.

That’s our fundamental premise.
